It appears to be. I see an oil fil tube in the rear, but none in the front. The O/P should checkout how the breathing system has been computed, as there seems to be no way for the air to get out. It may have a PCV valve mounted under the intake (or maybe not).

Looks like a couple of pretty nice "shoeboxes" there! (Love me them coupes).
